Sequencing the IL4 locus in African Americans implicates rare noncoding variants in asthma susceptibility.

The Journal of allergy and clinical immunology - 1 Dec 2009

Haller Gabe, Torgerson Dara G, Ober Carole, Thompson Emma E

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Common genetic variations in the IL4 gene have been associated with asthma and atopy in European and Asian populations, but not in African Americans. OBJECTIVE: Because populations of African descent have increased levels of genetic variation compared with other populations, particula...
